This plan includes a water buffalo cart tour on Taketomi Island, a self-guided exploration with rental bicycles, and a ferry ticket between Ishigaki and Taketomi Island. You will leisurely explore the village with its vivid red-tiled roofs contrasting against the blue sky while riding the water buffalo cart. Enjoy the guide’s narration with the gentle sound of the sanshin (traditional Okinawan instrument) in the background. With multiple start times available, it’s easy to combine this with other activities! The convenient rental bicycles allow you to visit places like the shallow Kondoi Beach, Kaiji Beach, known for its "star sand," cafes with sea views, and charming souvenir shops. Make the most of your time on this island, which still retains the original Okinawan scenery!

    暑いけれども楽しい

    船も乗れるし、自転車にも乗れて、ピーチにも行けるのでとても楽しいです 人手不足でバスの本数は少ないけど、時間さえ見ておけばバッチリ 水筒2本ぐらいはいりますね

    危うく乗り遅れるところでした。

    オンラインでチケット購入しました。 カウンターに行って確認したところ、特に手続きは不要なのでそのままフェリーに行くように言われました。 しかしチケットがないと乗れませんと出向時間5分前に言われて慌ててカウンターに戻り確認したところ、チケット発行必須だったようです。 走り回ってギリギリ間に合った感じでヒヤヒヤしました。 間違った案内をしないようにしていただきたかったです。

    説明で聞いてない事が多くて困惑…

    乗船前のチェックインした際、説明を受けていない点が多々あり不便でした。 ①レンタサイクル屋さんは別の店舗で借りるように言われました。 水牛車乗り場の敷地内にもレンタサイクルがありますが、船会社の手配の関係で近隣のレンタサイクル店に割り振られる事があるようです。 ②船、水牛、自転車、それぞれ利用時に店舗控えのチケットをお渡しする必要があります。 (今回レンタサイクル屋さんがチケットを貰いそびれた影響で、届けに行く手間が増え不便でした。) こういう細かい注意事項をチェックインの際に説明していて頂けると助かります。竹富島の炎天下の中、徒歩5分の距離でも体力を奪われます。旅の流れが把握できるように、事前のアテンド宜しくお願いします。

    予約しておいて良かった!

    天気が良く暑い日だったので、全て順調に進み良かった。水牛車は乗って正解👍カイジ浜やコンドイ浜までは自転車借りたので順調。住宅街は水牛歩くので砂が多い道だから、ちょっと自転車はハンドル取られて大変だけど、暑い日は自転車なら風も感じれるので最高😀お昼は2時頃店が閉まると聞いていたので、なんとか間に合い八重山そば食べれました。チケットがあり、全て順調だったので、予約しておいて本当に良かったと思います。
